#### Ubuntu distribution release information

Similar to the 'distro-info' package, this class parses and
contains the Ubuntu release information. Instead of a static data
file, this instead downloads the the meta-release information from
changelogs.ubuntu.com, and parses it to determine the most recent
release information.
